Is that what happens when you stop help debugging
-
And what do we say when we take out the bug from the code

@Root I wrote that like 26 days ago and at this point I'm too afraid to ask myself what I was on then.
Prolly a #badMerge -
Congratulations but give it time
-
Why not just be yourself and experience the privileges
-
Ah so that's how its done
-
wish I had the urge to think about a million people... Good job though

*splits screen instead

If it works, don't touch it

Math is essential if your focus is in infrastructure engineering

Ah so that's how it works

fuck national news

@iAmNaN well the IAM team.. I hear some of their folks are on devRant too for the lolz... didnt wanna trigger them instantly
-
He/she may have learned the code of machines but not the code of mutual respect.
Personally I don't give a f__k about what the interns know. If they have respect and a desire to learn we get along well.
I have one coming next month just in time for my holidays. I'll hear from the colleagues about him then will decide whether to break balls or not. -
I understand why we don't have cure for cancer yet
-
Definitely British. I hear it almost everyday from a colleague in the Ops team.
-
Lol.. you had me at bollocks
-
That's some top-notch asm commenting I've ever seen
-
Lord of Haskell calls me to his path everytime I see it in our codebase.. and every time I say "Not today, oh lord"
-
Don't ask for return type - assume it's void
-
That's nothing serious at all - at least if your team/manager is understanding. Mistakes happen, you learn from it.
I have done a terrible one some time ago.
Made changes to an open source lib code commented the reason for the changes with an example and sent to my personal email so I can improve it in my free time. Well, it got picked up automatically by the proxies and cc'ed me, directors and the CIRT team. I could hear the noise of firing bell in my ears.
Next day got an email from my manager to explain the incident and I did with my best performance of essay writing since my university life. So good, that my manager replied thanking me and they asked me to delete every external traces of it and confirm them. Just like that it was all over. -
Should be called FaaS.. as in functions as a service, as in Fuckshit as a Service

I have colleagues who break all hr rules for breakfast. I initially tried to leave them when conversations peaks to that height, but these bullies started picking on me. Well now i integrated well with the team but dont add to their those kind of conversation. Personally started playing my own game of ranking these bullies in my mind.
My suggestion, don't raise any hr issues- it's gonna look bad on you. Just swallow chill pills like me. -
I guess employers just think of this as a liability if you quit education for no reason/you didn't like what they taught at university. This is simply because they only focus on your ability to commit on some important goals not achieving them. Which in reality can be entirely different for example like you said - debt or illness or family reasons.
On the other hand, a degree is no indicator for skills or experience/exposure to technologies that you have gathered. It's just a placeholder, maybe shows something that you've accomplished- relevant or not
But the good thing is you have several options, nothing is the end of your career.
1) You can perhaps focus on your current job and improve your skills implementing new techniques, ways to impact changes in your team/organization.
2) You create something as a showcase of your dedication- github/opensource projects are a great way to do this. Or, create many things to shows your creativity. This will help you to be a fulltime dev at your current place. If not, help you get a better one. This is not something simple and you may need a stroke of luck. But hey when it happens, it just happens.
3) You could go back and complete your degree and find a better job elsewhere.
4) Keep applying to as many jobs as possible: Learn New stuffs-->Apply-->Get Feedback-->ImproveCV+Cover-->Take better preparation-->Apply. Never submit the exact same cv/cover twice even if it's a different company. Keep changing the formats if you have to. Don't lose hope if you get rejected, better things maybe waiting for you. Shrug off all the negativities and keep on repeating.
It's not that degree - you only need a lucky spark. Good luck -
I was once working in a devops team similar to the product company you're talking about. It's a one of the top 2 CRM platforms out there. It's a mess even on the pushing side. I can only imagine the complexities the developers face on the other end. Rhousand of changes are pushed every day so much so that it's hard to keep track. I believe it's the same today.
Frustration goes on, only developers come and go. -
@linuxxx wish our intern in concern was like that.. last time she committed credentials to our repo instead of asking anything about Ansible vault
-
Does it work on the mobile browsers coz I wannabe coding on the go
-
@gitpush oops my bad hehehe
@firebender I started late with js and didn't know where to start. I guess going with some good Medium tutorials will be a good start. -
If it's js I guess it's too late now.. by the time you finish a book 3 new framework will be out
